	What evidence do you see that the theory is not carried out?

	The shortfalls that are predicted will be worse with the Inflationary
budget now before Congress.  The tax reliefe it gives is pretty much
limited to people who have enough money to buy a Congressional
represenative or Senator.

	I may not be alive when the shortfalls happen but the only reason
it won't be worse is that most of my contemporaries and many younger
friends have died.
